DIY Framed Chalkboards
To make the chalkboards, I painted the wooden picture frames I found in our storage room white. Next, I cut a piece of thin wood to fit each opening, then painted them out in chalkboard paint.
Before you use your newly created chalkboard, prime the surface by rubbing with a piece of chalk on its side and then wiping with a dry rag. It prevents the first drawing from being permanently etched on the surface.
Hot Chocolate Party Favour
For the to-go pouches, I simply filled a cellophane bag with hot chocolate mix, white and dark chocolate chips and a large marshmallow. Then I tied it up with ribbon.
Next, I glued ribbon around the cup, leaving enough room to stick the straw through.

Such wonderful ideas here including the ribbon detail which makes it more special. Very pretty bar, Shauna!
Thanks Lisa!
I love it! I long to have a hot chocolate bar – especially with Godiva and Pottery Barn visiting! ;)
You should do one for sure. Your kids would love it! I decided last year I wanted to do one for this season, so write it down and make sure you follow through with it- you won’t be disappointed!
I love it Shauna! So pretty and all the little details are wonderful! Great colour scheme! Angie xo
